MONEY BACK / UP-TIME GUARANTEE

If you’re not 100% happy we will refund your money back for resources not used base on your billing date. If you’re within our 15-day grace period, we will refund you for the full amount you paid. If you are after our 15-day grace period, you will not be provided a refund.

The guarantee is not applicable if over 90% of your bandwidth is used, you are found in violation of our Terms of Service at any time, or your IP is null routed for any reason.

If your website is not available for the guaranteed amount of time within a given month, we will provide you with a pro-rated credit for the time.

While we rarely have server issues that result in downtime, we admit that downtime in service can happen. When they do, you should not have to pay for it. Which is why we have a 99.9% uptime guarantee.

Please note that this guarantee applies only to unscheduled outages. Occasional planned server/network maintenance may be necessary. In all but the most urgent cases, we will send out an email notifying customers of maintenance that is to be performed. When notice is sent at least two hours before service interruption, the outage does not qualify for our uptime guarantee.

We will only refund on a per month basis. We will not refund the full amount if paid in advance. Refunds are not automatic. You must contact us for a refund. Refunds are processed after 15 days from cancelation.

USE OF SERVICES AND RENTED CONTENT

You agree that the Service may include security technology that limits your use and that you shall use the Service in compliance with the applicable usage rules established by WP Pro Fix and its licensors (“Usage Rules”), and that any other use may constitute a copyright infringement. WP Pro Fix reserves the right to modify the Usage Rules at any time.

PCI COMPLIANCE

WP Pro Fix is NOT a PCI compliant certified host. We do make sure that all our of servers are updated to the latest OS software and our servers are secure using a firewall. However, we do not guarantee compliance.

Our hardware can be used in PCI compliant environments, but because PCI compliance concerns things we have no control over with a self-managed solution we do not have any way of ensuring overall compliance and do not label any hardware as “PCI Compliant.” PCI compliance requires both the provider and the customer leasing the server or service to both meet certain criteria. We can ensure that our end meets those requirements; however we cannot ensure that the customer’s end meets compliance.”

If a PCI scan test detects a failure in our system, we will work with you to make the changes required to make your site compliant. Additional fees may occur. This is not included in your monthly management.

Systems such as WooCommerce processes credit cards over authorize.net API which prevents full credit card information from being stored in the database. The credit card information is passed directly to authorize.net using SSL/HTTPS for processing. Only the last 4 digits of a credit card are stored in the WooCommerce database for log reasons, and you have to retype in your card for every order. WordPress based e-commerce systems use the same technology, but we cannot comment on their PCI compliance.

An SSL certificated is REQUIRED.

However, hosting is just one part of the PCI compliance requirements. For more information, please visit www.pcisecuritystandards.org

WP Pro Fix is not liable for any failures in the PCI compliant requirements.

See section Indemnification for more information.

However, WP Pro Fix reserves the right (but undertakes no duty) to do so and decide whether any item of User Content is appropriate and/or complies with this Agreement. WP Pro Fix may remove any item of User Content (whether posted to a website hosted by WP Pro Fix or posted to this Site) and/or terminate a User’s access to this Site or the Services found at this Site for posting or publishing any material in violation of this Agreement, or for otherwise violating this Agreement (as determined by WP Pro Fix in its sole and absolute discretion), at any time and without prior notice.

NO SPAM; LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

No Spam. We do not tolerate the transmission of spam. We monitor all traffic to and from our web servers for indications of spamming and maintain a spam abuse complaint center to register allegations of spam abuse. Customers suspected to be using our products and services for the purpose of sending spam are fully investigated. If we determine there is a problem with spam, we will take the appropriate action to resolve the situation.

We define spam as the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE), Unsolicited Bulk Email (UBE) or Unsolicited Facsimiles (Fax), which is email or facsimile sent to recipients as an advertisement or otherwise, without first obtaining prior confirmed consent to receive these communications. This can include, but is not limited to, the following:

Commercial advertising and/or bulk emails or faxes may only be sent to recipients who have “opted-in” to receive messages. They must include a legitimate return address and reply-to address, the sender’s physical address, and an opt-out method in the footer of the email or fax. Upon request by us, conclusive proof of opt-in may be required for an email address or fax number.

If we determine the services in question are being used in association with spam, we will re-direct, suspend, or cancel any website hosting, domain registration, email boxes or other applicable services for a period of no less than two (2) days. The registrant or customer will be required to respond by email to us stating that they will cease to send spam and/or have spam sent on their behalf. We will require a non-refundable reactivation fee to be paid before the site, email boxes and/or services are reactivated. In the event we determine the abuse has not stopped after services have been restored the first time, we may terminate the hosting and email boxes associated with the domain name in question.

We encourage all customers and recipients of email generated from our products and services to report suspected spam. Suspected abuse can be reported by email or through our Spam Abuse Complaint Center on the Web.

Liquidated Damages. You agree that we may immediately terminate any Account which we believe, in our sole and absolute discretion, is transmitting or is otherwise connected with any spam or other unsolicited bulk email. In addition, if actual damages cannot be reasonably calculated, then you agree to pay us liquidated damages in the amount of $5.00 for each piece of spam or unsolicited bulk email transmitted from or otherwise connected with your Account.
